Bar Details

"The club on the hill" in Southwest Little Rock is where the restless gather to dance and eat free fried chicken(and other soul food goodies) until the wee hours. With pool tables, a nice-sized dance floor and "sexy dress" contests on Saturdays. Power 92 DJs regularly host. The free buffet starts at 9 p.m. Monday and Thursday and at midnight on Saturday.

An ordinance being considered by the City Board would close the city's 5 a.m. clubs at 2 a.m. Here's why that's bad policy for Little Rock.

Some shift workers don't knock off work until 11 p.m. A night of fun that ends at 11 p.m. for someone who had a 5 p.m. quitting time would end at 5 a.m. for the shift worker who gets off at 11 p.m. Entertainment in those hours, after Waffle House and EZ Mart, is limited. And it will soon be more limited if some city directors have their way.

Little Rock might not quite be a "city that never sleeps," but for decades the city's night owls have had a scattering of options for late-night socializing thanks to licenses that allowed private clubs to operate until 5 a.m.
